Much of the potential joy of a Mediterranean vacation is undermined if you don’t speak the local language. It’s difficult to eat at the interesting, non-tourist-trap restaurants; you often end up shopping at overpriced tourist stores; and your only conversations are with people whose job it is to be multi-lingual—cabdrivers, hotel staff, waiters, and so forth.
